Extended description

Two gunslingers, one little girl, a big bag of toys...and murder.

Mick and Casey McKee aren't exactly your average gunslingers. He's young and inexperienced, and has much too sunny a disposition for a gunman. She's younger, meaner, less experienced, but a much better shot.

When they get a job protecting the daughter of a stagecoach king--and her grand collection of toys--it seems like an opportunity to go someplace new. But after the wrong kidnapping, a murder, another wrong kidnapping, a couple of jewel heists and a few knocks to the head, Mick and Casey are left holding the bag of toys. Mick, however, is not as dumb as he seems, and as for Casey...nobody steals her gun and gets away with it.

HAVE GUN, WILL PLAY, a western whodunnit, for fans of both mystery and light adventure.

Enjoyed the read. Nice to read a book that contains humour and is not filled with graphic violence and profanity. A little far-fetched in places, but life would be boring if we didn't use our imagination. Would certainly enjoy reading a sequel.

Have Gun, Will Play offers upbeat characters in this old west crime mystery. The story follows the adventures of married couple Mick and Casey - she's the sharpshooter, he's the talker - as they get into more and more trouble. Luckily they also find their way back out with the help of his figurin' and her skilled gun play. Some interesting bad guys, a murder and a beautiful woman round out this offering. While the end gets a little over-busy, and the pacing in the middle could be a little better, I really enjoyed this book, and am definitely looking forward to the sequel.
